Looking at indoor flowers, there is a desire to get rid of them. However, it is still possible to save their lives.

This does not require the use of any expensive products or fertilizers. It is enough to have oatmeal at home, from which you can prepare a healing decoction for indoor plants.

Oatmeal contains potassium, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, calcium and other useful substances. It is used as food to have good health, and is also given to animals to be healthy. Therefore, oatmeal will be an excellent fertilizer for the plant.

Oat flakes will balance the nitrogen level in the substrate.

To prepare the fertilizer, you will need 0.5 cups of oatmeal and 1 liter of water. Pour water over the oatmeal and leave to infuse for 30 minutes, then drain the liquid. Then dilute the resulting liquid with water in a ratio of 1:4 and water the wilted flowers.

Watering should be such that the roots and flowers are saturated with the mixture. After some time, the condition of even the most wilted flowers will begin to improve.

You can also make fertilizer in another, simpler way. Grind oat flakes into a powder.

Sprinkle them on top of the soil and mix them so that the fertilizer is better absorbed.

Oatmeal top dressing is a budget fertilizer option that will cope with its task no worse than expensive store-bought products. You will need only 0.5-1 cup of rolled oats per 1 sq. m of soil.

Oatmeal is suitable for feeding garden plants, seedlings, street flowers, bushes and trees. The consumption of the product is the same, but a little more will be needed for the tree trunk circle.

The oatmeal will attract earthworms, which eat it, grow, begin to reproduce and improve the quality of the soil.

Most gardeners trust this fertilizer and its effectiveness. After feeding with oatmeal, plants will feel much better.
